INDEPENDENT TRAVEL

Independent travel is for individuals who have mapped out a very specific itinerary for themselves. Travel agents can help them with their car rentals, finding accommodations and activities in the specific areas they would like to visit. Independent travel is for people who don’t mind driving in unfamiliar places and are generally traveling from one place to another as opposed to being interested in enjoying the scenery along the way.

Pros:

Set your own itinerary and schedule.

Cons:

Lack of knowledge that a local guide might be able to provide.

Might spend more time driving and trying to find your way around than actually enjoying the view/vacation.
